one group wants him out of power but the majority want him in. he called an election in april and the 'people alliance for democracy' stopped people standing against him in the election, this meant that thaksins party needed 20%of the vote in the unapossed seats to win, he basically won apart from a few seats , so then the PAD decided to hold proyests and make complaints about fraud and the elction comission were sacked and some imprisonned.
we were due another election next month but the intsability and thaksins refusal to resign (but why should he, he is the elected leader and no proof of any wrongdoing against him) has led to the army taking control to restore stabilty. but to be honest i dont think it needed to be restored, i think general sonthi has his own agenda against thaksin (remember the army led an attempt on thaksins life 2 weeks ago). thaksin sacked sonthi the same day as the coup started.
not democratic as far as i am concerned, i think they are confused with what deocracy actually is
